Edwards commented: “I am delighted to be joining Vision for what is clearly a very exciting time ahead for the business. I am very much looking forward to working alongside the team and bringing my additional knowledge and experience of the light equipment product portfolio on board to further enhance the client offer.”

Vision’s MD, Craig Forrester, added: “We’ve considered the ecommerce side of the business for some time and feel that, with the recruitment of a seasoned professional in Nick, we can develop this area substantially. Nick will be a great addition to the team.”
